Shadows of our Former Companions: How the Single-Degenerate Binary Type Ia Supernova Scenario Affects Remnants
William J Gray, Cody Raskin, J. Michael Owen
Here we present three-dimensional high resolution simulations of Type Ia supernova in the presence of a non-degenerate companion. We find that the presence of a nearby companion le…
Rapid Optimal SPH Particle Distributions in Spherical Geometries For Creating Astrophysical Initial Conditions
Cody Raskin, J. Michael Owen
Creating spherical initial conditions in smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations that are spherically conformal is a difficult task. Here, we describe two algorithmic methods f…
Type Ia Supernovae from Merging White Dwarfs II) Post-Merger Detonations
Cody Raskin, Daniel Kasen, Rainer Moll +2
Merging carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs are a promising progenitor system for Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia), but the underlying physics and timing of the detonation are still debated.…
Type Ia Supernovae from Merging White Dwarfs I. Prompt Detonations
Rainer Moll, Cody Raskin, Daniel Kasen +1
Merging white dwarfs are a possible progenitor of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). While it is not entirely clear if and when an explosion is triggered in such systems, numerical model…
Tidal Tail Ejection as a Signature of Type~Ia Supernovae from White Dwarf Mergers
Cody Raskin, Daniel Kasen
The merger of two white dwarfs may be preceded by the ejection of some mass in "tidal tails", creating a circumstellar medium around the system. We consider the variety of observat…
Remnants of Binary White Dwarf Mergers
Cody Raskin, Evan Scannapieco, Chris Fryer +2
We carry out a comprehensive smooth particle hydrodynamics simulation survey of double-degenerate white dwarf binary mergers of varying mass combinations in order to establish corr…
